Induro T505XXL overview

The GIT505XXL Grand Series 5 Stealth Carbon Fiber Tripod with GH2C Gimbal Head is a B&H Kit consisting of a set of Induro Series 5 tripod legs and a Benro Gimbal Head.

Optimized for the highest level of stability and utilizing a flat modular magnesium alloy platform, the GIT505XXL will provide many users with the ability to create their ideal setup, whether they need a leveling base, double-sided gear column, or video bowl. This kit can support up to 55 lb of equipment along with the ability to reach up to 90.8" in height. Also, due to the lack of a center column, it reaches down to 15".

Each leg is divided into 5 sections and they feature half-turn twist locks for fast adjustments. Portability is maintained as well with a folded length of 37.1". Each tripod also comes with an aluminum top plate with a hard anodized coating, oversized weight hook, and a set screw for locking down your tripod head. Additionally, a carrying case is included for convenience (Please note: The included case is designed specifically for the tripod legs and may not accommodate the Gimbal Head when attached).

Ideal for long, heavy lenses, the included GH2C Carbon Fiber Gimbal Head from Benro is a great tool for any wildlife, sports, or action photographer. The integrated Arca-type compatible clamp allows for quick attachment and release of your camera and lens, and a PL100 quick release plate is included. A vertical scale and a 360° panoramic scale allow for easy adjustments and repeatable pans, while a large pivot tension knob enables smooth tilts. A separate knob locks the panning motion, for more complete adjustment control.

Unable To Register Product for WarrantyThe tripod is built like a tank, extremely sturdy, and of good quality. I had to return the Gimbal head because the vertical arm was stiff to the point where I was unable to move it when the camera and lens were attached, which made it impossible to photograph wildlife. B&H replaced the GH2C with a properly functioning copy. The return process was painless. Kudos to B&H! The provided documentation is written to Chinese Peasant standards, and are useless. There is no Warranty Card provided with either product. After I was unable to register the product online as instructed, I've placed two telephone calls and I've written eleven emails to Induro, with negative results. The product is still not registered, and therefore I have yet to receive the 5 Year extended Warranty.

Quality set of sticks!My first impression when I unboxed this this was just WOW! From the case or carrying bag it came in to the build quality of it is just amazing. Built like a tank does not do this tripod justice, it feels like I can climb on top of it and sit there and I know that is probably overstating it's capacity but when I set it up and put some weight on it there was hardly any movement at all. When you get it set up it is rock solid, I put my Nikon D750 with a Nikon 200-500 zoom lens on it and I don't think this thing thought it had anything at all on it. Although I will very seldom need the height this thing will go to I can see that if you were out in the bush on uneven terrain it certainly would be very useful to have that extra length in the legs. I had no problem registering the tripod on Induro's website to get the extra 5 year warranty for a total of 10 years. It is just hard to say enough about how well built this thing is but I do realize that time and use will tell but I don't see me ever needing another set of sticks in my lifetime unless it is to get something that is not quite this big. Amazing tripod!!
